ITEM 5 FEES AND COMPENSATION
If a client determines to engage BFA to provide investment advisory services on a fee basis, BFA’s tiered annual
investment advisory fee is based upon a percentage (%) of the market value of the assets placed under BFA’s
management as follows. There is no minimum required assets under management. However, assets less than
$1,000,000 may be charged a quarterly minimum fee of $100. The Adviser may choose to charge this minimum
account fee or charge a lower asset-based fee at its sole discretion. All fees are negotiable between the client and
BFA with the maximum fee outlined in the schedule below. Assets are combined at the household level for
determining the appropriate fee when the schedule is used. Fees may be charged in advance or in arrears, though
typically accounts are billed in arrears. The timing of fees is outlined in the client advisory agreement.
In addition to the advisory fee, clients will also be charged an annual technology fee of $50 per account to cover
the cost of account aggregation software. If a client has a held-away account that it would like the advisor to
manage, the advisor will use a third-party service provider to view and manage those assets. At no time will the
advisor accept, maintain possession, or have custodial responsibility for the client’s funds or securities. The third-
party service provider charges a fee of 0.25% annually for the use of its order management system. The advisor
will collect this fee on behalf of the third-party service provider out of another custodial account either held or
set up with the client for this purpose.
BFA MAXIMUM FEE SCHEDULE
HOUSEHOLD ASSETS UNDER MANAGEMENT ANNUAL RATE(S)
Under $1,000,000 1.75%
$1,000,001 to $2,000,000 1.50%
$2,000,001 or more 1.25%
OTHER COMPENSATION
Certain Principals and employees of BFA maintain licenses with various life and disability insurance companies. In
providing advisory services, these individuals may recommend the purchase of products under circumstances
where they would be entitled to receive a commission or other compensation in the transaction. In all such
circumstances, however, the client will be notified of this payment in advance of the transaction, and under no
circumstances will the client pay both a commission to these individuals and a management fee to BFA on the
same pool of assets.
FINANCIAL PLANNING AND CONSULATION SERVICES
BFA offers a variety of fee structures in connection with financial planning and consultation services. Among the
fee structures are: 1) hourly charges; 2) a one-time flat fee; and 3) a retainer fee that can be paid annually, semi-
annually, or quarterly. Financial planning and consultation services are negotiable and agreed upon prior to
entering into a contract.
Hourly fees and one-time flat fees are invoiced as charges are incurred, payable within 30 days of the invoice. For
retainer services, invoices will be sent out to the client on an annual, semi-annual, or quarterly basis, dependent
on the frequency of billing selected, and are payable within 30 days of the invoice. Payments can be made by
check or AdvicePay. Refunds are not available as the services have been performed at the time of invoicing.
Use of Third-Party Consultants - In select situations, BFA will enter into a written agreement with other third
parties for consulting services provided in support of BFA’s portfolio management services for certain accounts.
In these situations, a portion of the client’s advisory fee may be shared with the third-party consultant.
OTHER FEE CONSIDERATIONS
BFA receives its compensation through a combination of hourly, fixed, administrative, and asset-based fees. BFA’s
general policy is to charge fees in accordance with the fee schedule in effect at the time of the charge, however,
all fees are subject to negotiation. Asset Management services are provided on either a discretionary or non-
discretionary basis, as authorized by the client through the execution of each respective agreement. In the case
of non-discretionary services, the client must consent to each recommended securities transaction. In addition,
BFA may charge a relatively minor fee either as a flat fee percentage or a flat fee dollar amount for certain non-
discretionary accounts to cover the administrative and overhead expenses associated with servicing those
accounts outside of its discretionary management services.
BFA’s investment advisory and financial planning fees are negotiable at BFA’s discretion, depending upon
objective and subjective factors including but not limited to: the amount of assets to be managed; portfolio
composition; the scope and complexity of the engagement; the anticipated number of meetings and servicing
needs; related accounts; future earning capacity; anticipated future additional assets; the professional(s)
rendering the service(s); prior relationships with BFA and/or its representatives, and negotiations with the client.
Certain legacy clients have accepted different pre-existing service offerings from BFA and therefore receive
services under different fee schedules than as set forth above. As a result of these factors, similarly situated clients
could pay different fees, the services to be provided by BFA to any particular client could be available from other
advisers at lower fees, and certain clients have fees different than those specifically set forth above.
BFA’s Chief Compliance Officer, Laurie Moore, remains available to address any questions that a client or
prospective client may have regarding the above fee determination.
Clients may elect to have BFA’s advisory fees deducted from their custodial account. Both BFA’s Investment
